Mary Ann Covone, Attorney at Law, provides representation in the areas of practice that are most important to you as a local business owner. Ms. Covone focuses on the following areas of practice:
- Contracts - Careful drafting and review of contracts is essential to
your business. A contract should clearly articulate the terms that the parties agreed upon. The document will become a blueprint from which the parties will define their roles and plan their business endeavors. Ms. Covone will draft your “blueprint” to help you avoid future misunderstandings, disputes and litigation.
- Dispute Resolution - If a dispute is brewing, it is time to call
your lawyer – before it becomes a law suit. Ms. Covone is an experienced negotiator and problem-solver. Her ability to work with people and bring them together can save your business time and money.
- Litigation and Appeals – If a dispute cannot be resolved and
culminates in litigation, Ms. Covone will aggressively pursue your interest at the administrative level and in court. Ms. Covone has tried numerous cases to successful verdicts.
- Business Formation - What structure is right for your business
– corporation, sole-proprietorship, general partnership, limited partnership, LLC? Ms. Covone will listen to your plans and goals for your business, help you select the appropriate business entity, and take the necessary legal steps to create your entity.
- Business Sales & Acquisitions – The effort you put forth
investigating the viability of a merger, sale or acquisition is at least of equal importance to the effort you put forth negotiating and closing the deal. Contact Ms. Covone as you begin to think through the process so that she can assist you in exercising the requisite “due diligence” in preparing for the sale or acquisition of a business.
- Employment / OSHA – It is important that you develop
policies that comply with state and federal regulations before an inspector appears at your company or before an employee complains to a regulatory agency. Ms. Covone can help you understand and comply with all regulations so that you can avoid costly legal problems “after the fact.”
- Zoning - Ms. Covone has ten years of experience representing
municipal entities. If the property you select for your business needs to be re-zoned, she will represent your interest from the initial stage of investigation through the final hearing before the municipal Zoning Board of Appeals and Board of Trustees.
- Real Estate - As a convenience to you and your business, Ms.
Covone offers representation for your real estate negotiations and closings.
